Yeah, it's a difficult choice.

I was going to suggest cropping but I thought you'd lose too much of the
red truck.

Now, having seen the crop, I'm not so sure.  I think I prefer the
cropped version by a small margin.

Yes, very colourful.  I think the flat lighting helps here - might be
too many distracting shadows otherwise.

Pity about that railing in the foreground but, apart from that, I like
it.

Interesting indeed. I like the light, actually. Much better than a strong 
sunlight from the wrong direction, as often that kind of moving tripod offer 
us. :-)

A very dynamic street scene - I'll echo others who say that the flat
light helps here.

Well composed and well thought out!
